I don't think I've been all that clear in my original post, Eric knows the bit I mean though, it's the long strip of trim that runs the length of the car. One side resists being pulled off pretty well and the other side was knocked off the other day as I brushed over it with a cloth while cleaning the car. The wheel arch trims used to do it on my 'M' reg Mini, but I certainly wasn't expecting it on this one.

This isn't a whinge by the way, I fully expect the dealers to replace this asap and they can superglue it back on as far as I'm concerned, so long as it doesn't drop off again!
